I was compairing the Tremek 5sp to the Richmond 6sp. I thought the Tremek was around $2100. and the Richmond 6sp around $1300.
Are those figures about right?

If you're interested in an apples-to-apples comparison between the Richmond 5 and the Tremec 5, check this out:
http://www.tremectransmissions.com/5sp_comparison.html Although I would admit, the Tremec is more work. Your choice depends on what you really want. A true overdrive? or an additional lower gear?
Close gearing? or wider gearing?
Do you want to keep your existing rear gears? or are you willing to swap?
etc. The Tremec doesn't require tunnel "surgery" on the '69 (even auto trans tunnel), but you'll have to lower the rear of the trans by 3/8". This can be accomplished by a cross member modification, or a rear trans mount modification. If you're still interested in the Tremec, I can offer list members a 5% discount. That's about $100 savings on a TKO.
